My shoulders throbbing from hanging, I ignored the pain and pulled myself
up.  I bowed to the queen as best I could, very aware of how bad I
looked.  My right eye pounded and my head felt like an anvil in an

Mea did not answer.  She merely walked past me in the direction of her
ship.  Zarth gave me a puzzled look and followed sheepishly.  We
followed, not knowing our way around.  By the time we returned to the
ship (which was completely repaired and paid for with Soverian platinum),
